"In a Relationship" - So the status says.....

I couldn't have asked for a better lead in to what I want to say than taking from Glen Beck's words today.... the leaves are changing. As I evolve and change as a woman, mother, sister, aunt, friend, co-worker; what is really changing is the relationship that I hold myself to the highest esteem - a Daughter of God.

When you make the decision to "get right with God" it involves some serious self-reflection. I have spent the past several months going through the process of who I am, what my purpose is and how does that lay upon my eternal map the Lord has for me. What I learned was amazing. I don't think I could even accurately reflect in writing the flood of knowledge that my heart, mind and soul has witnesses in the past weeks. Where it landed me - living Plan A!

God has a plan for all of us. From start to finish. There is no Plan B. Plan C. Plan D. There is only one plan for each of us - Plan A. I'm living it. I'm living what God has called of me. I sat in Pastor Rick's Bible Teaching last night and it were as though it were only he and I amongst an entire congregation of listeners. He spoke many things that resonated with me, but as he taught from the Book of Jude and explained the bondservant (Jude 1:1), consider me one. I am here to serve the Lord because I want to be. Because I have the opportunity to be in God's Love. It's an amazing transformation to accept Jesus into your heart and allow him to work miracles in, on and around you. What a blessing to be in this time.

So... yes, I am in a new relationship with my Lord Jesus. He is my Savior and the one that I can wholly submit myself to with complete trust. He gave his life for me - even if I were the only one standing on the earth, he would have still died for me alone. I can not leave the side of someone willing to do that for me. I am committed to my walk with Jesus.

Plan A. To walk the walk. The doors have opened. I'm under a spout that is pouring blessing upon blessing. God has perfectly put in front of me the people that need to be here. There will be more changes coming - don't be surprised. I'm thrilled and although I DO look forward to developing a relationship on this earth with a man who has the same devotion to God, it is not yet. It's an adventure. And you never know what's going to happen when God works miracles. But I'm listening!!

Love to you! ~Sandy
